I Am Not ~ A Poem

Baton Rouge : LA : USA | about 1 month ago

I am not your wall. I am not your floor. I am not your trash can. And I am not your doormat.

I am not your dog. I am not your television. I am not you frying pan. And I am not your pillow.

I am not your car. I am not your computer. I am not your dishwasher. And I am not your book. I am a human being and I have feelings.

I have a heart. It beats. I breathe. I cry. I think. I hurt. And I try. Too hard. I am a woman and I am sensitive. I have feet. They stand. I yell. I smile. I sigh. I tense. I feel. And I laugh. Too little.

I am not your person. I am not your possession. I am not your couch. And I am not your whim.

I am me. Let me be me. I wear it. My heart. Don't forget that it's still my heart and it still hurts. Let me wear it. That's me.

You make me cry, you lose my trust. You make me angry, you lose my love. You make me a fool, you lose me.

I think your poem is the most "true to real feelings" as I have ever read. Keep on writing because when you express your thought, the battle is half won. Do not worry if anyone cares to hear it, or even appreciates it, just write and trust that the who truly matters, God, He hears it and He could and would change situations just for your sake. Then the battle is completely won.

You are most welcome. Just to let you know, I also dabble in poetry. Actually I used writting to help me heal from many difficult times. If you wish to read some, please check my blogs. You will find them in my profile. It is the one called "joureny of a soul". Enjoy and God bless you.
